this is my 2nd favorite tv show right behind dexter. i can't take my eyes off the screen for either of them. I can't wait for season 4 and i hope hank keeps ******* everyone even though he's planning on moving to New York. His daughter is a little weird though. I think that i've seen her smile maybe twice and when she talks she has no facial expression at all. but i guess the show wouldn't be the same without her. Please keep the episodes coming. i don't have anything else to say so this is for the 100 word min...
please tell me there will be a season 4 to straighten things up!! hide show
A great show that i like and recommend to all my friends. It's got comedy,drama and never the less keeps the action in the limits of reality! Through the script played that overwhelms and David Duchovny's true acting skills makes this show one of my favorites and one that is very watchable by everyone even people who won't like it won't have nothing to say to mock it!
I for one started seeing this show very skeptical but from the first episode my thoughts changed and i soon became a fan for this masterpiece that i recommend to everyone!! Bye!!
This episode was PAINFUL!!! hide show
Usually a clever and delightful show, this episode was the all-time worst. I've actually never seen a show that I didn't like - until now. The dialog was so poorly written it made me cringe. The overuse and abuse of "street" lingo made these otherwise witty characters seem like nerds. The Marcie character was the worst victim of this, but Hank and Charlie weren't much better. And Evan Handler's performance was very awkward, like he know how bad it was. I'm assuming a different writer or director was used for this episode - they should be banned. Please don't ruin this usually deliciously smart and engaging show with idiot dialog.
David Duchovny leads in this hilarious-sometimes shocking-sometimes touching-but always entertaining show. Being a best selling writer keeping himself, his love of his life and his daughter afloat in the Promise Land. And a good time was had by all.. hide show
For starters Duchovny brings to the table all that he was before this series and from his previous long running series there's alot. His comedic, dramatic, underrated and over the top skills. This series is a natural sideliner for him. He's easy to watch and isnt afraid to be himself so much so that 'He' is the character in the show. "Jacks outta the box" so to speak. Having gifted writers and the willingness of all these wonderful supporting actors, its no wonder the show is allowed to shine.. The theme is not new but is put afresh because of the people involved... its simply brilliant .. shocking ... awesome and perfectly flawed.. I see at least 5 seasons of this show before anyone feels tired....
Californication is a show that breaks all of the rules in scriptwriting, but that is precisely what makes this show so interesting and watchable…week after week. It's drama, it's comedy, it's over the top with just the right amount of reality thrown in. hide show
Admittedly, I tuned into Californication initially to catch my favorite celebrity, Rick Springfield, but I stayed for more than just Rick. I like the overall pace and energy of the show. No, some of the scenarios aren't original, in fact, a number of the ideas are lifted straight from the 1970s, including the title, but that's ok. It's a story retold and re-tooled so it makes it as if original. Half the fun of watching Californication is figuring out which pop cultural references or stereotypes are being employed…and exactly what kind of statement is being made. This shows makes you think without become overly intellectual or pedantic about it. What I like best about Californication is that the main character, Hank Moody, is not a formulaic 'sympathetic' character that most TV shows and books insist on having as leads. Things don't always go right for him, and to be honest he brings a lot of his troubles upon himself. It's the same thing with the Charlie Runkle character. By many standards, both men are 'losers' but you can't help but want to root for them when they do show their vulnerability…especially Charlie because he does have a heart of gold.
Another one of the reasons why I like this show so well is the casting, particularly in the 3d season. There's none of the let's go down to Central Casting and 'round up the usual young and nubile suspects' and have ONLY those types on the show. In the real world, not everyone is thin, blonde, pretty and under age 35 and it's time TV shows reflected that reality. It's great that the writers of Californication casted veteran actors like Kathleen Turner, and gave her them the strong and multi-dimensional role that serves as the walking talking karma out there just waiting to start biting people in the butt. If I had Sue Collini's chutzpah, let me tell you, I'd rule the world! I don't watch much television, so for me to make the time to watch Californication every week says something. I look forward to seeing what they'll come up with next.
